I keep receiving an unknown error (-1) when i am trying to update my ios

i keep receiving an unknown error (-1) when i am trying to update.  My iPad is not even a year old and it saying that it may be a hardware issue?  what gives?

Error -1
Attempt to restore your iOS device two more times. If the issue is still unresolved, the device may need service.
The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • TS3219 Is anyone receiving a "unknown error" message when updating/getting new apps?

    Before and after installing the new update I started receiving an "unknown error" message when trying to update apps. I changed my password thinking that was it but I am still getting the error message.

    Try signing out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again and see if that works for you.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap your ID and sign out.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Sign in again -Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign in.
    If that doesn't work either, reset your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • The "unknown error" problem when I am trying to sign in to the apple store on my Iphone 5

    "unknown error" problem when I am trying to sign in to the apple store on my Iphone 5, which was recently replaced with new one by the warranty (maybe this is the reason). However, it signed in on this device at first, but now it is not... What should I do?

    Mobile Me was withdrawn well over a year ago. If you still see Mobile Me in your system preferences it is because you have an old operating system.
    iCloud has replaced mobile me, but you would need OS X 10.7.2 or better to use iCloud.

  • I receive an unknown error (-50) when copying CDs.

    It copies 1 or 2 tracks then stops with this error. I have Windows Vista Home Premium and the latest version of iTunes. I have tried uninstalling as per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 and then reinstalling but it doesn't help. It is really starting to irritate me as I have a backlog of CDs to copy onto my iPod and iPad.
    Can anyone help?
    Regards,
    Kevin.

    I have a 30g Video Ipod and I have been having
    problems with it trying to syn up. I downloaded the
    Vista update for it and still no syncing but when I
    tried to update the Ipod I got this message.
    Ipod cannot be updated. An unknown error occured
    (-50).
    If anyone knows what this means and possibly could
    give me help with it, I would appreciate it very much.
    Same thing happened to me last night. It was right after I DL the update given by apple for Windows Vista. I just closed everything restarted my computer and tried again and it worked. Just that now all my Album Artwork is messed up. I'm listening to Fall Out Boy and I get the artwork for Grey's Anatomy Podcast. Weird. I have no idea how to fix it either.

  • HT4623 why do iget error message whenever i am trying to update to iOS 6.0.1 via iTunes and over OTA

    I am trying to update my iPhone 4 with iOS 6.0.1 but an error shows up saying "The iPhone 'xxxxxx' cannot be updated at this time because the iPhone software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailaible. Please try again later"
    I tried it many times, I have searched over internet for solutions, and I have got this everywhere, editing the host file with some ip address, but nothing helped,
    I even could not upgrade OTA over wifi, its shows the same error.

  • SOLVED: Error -50 during backup if trying to update to iOS 5

    Hi there!
    Issue:
    As I would update my iPhone and iPad 2, I got the following error, while iTunes was trying to save the backup:
    "Beim Backup der Daten dieses iPhones / iPads ist ein Fehler aufgetreten (-50). Möchten Sie mit der Aktualisierung des iPhones / iPads fortfahren?"
    => no, you shouldn't ;-)
    Issue solved:
    Since I couldn't find a solution for my problem while searching the Internet, I'd like to share the solution, which I could find myself. :-)
    Reason for the issue:
    The point is, that I redirect the iTunes backup to an iSCSI drive on my NAS. This works usualy without any problem, exept during updating to iOS 5.
    Solution:
    I temporarily replaced the link 'backup' in the MobileSync which redirects the backup to iSCSI network drive with a folder named 'backup' for iOS 5 installation:
      /Users/<USER>/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/backup
    So the backup will be created local to the Mac instead to the iSCSI drive.
    After installing iOS 5 I could replace the folder again with the link and all works perfect.
    Bug report to Apple:
    This behavor should be corrected. It seams to be a bug in iOS 5 upgrade process in iTunes in my opinion.
    Howsoever, it's easy to solve the issue, if you know the reason.
    Maybe I can help someone with this hint.
    Sincerely

    THANK YOU. Saved me a few hours, this did.
    This is stil not fixed in the latest iTunes, MobileSync, or iOS 6. Whichever piece has the problem is still badly broken, and in this age of 64 GB flash drives in MacBook Air models, surely we're not the only two that have moved that monstrous folder out to an external drive....

  • Received an unknown error -42110 when trying to sync ipod touch?

    ipod touch won't sync to itunes.....and it froze up after I updated everything on it and loaded new apps.  I can't get out of the frozen state?

    "Error 3001,"  "-42110," or "5103"

    Make sure you are using the most recent version of iTunes and QuickTime. They both can be downloaded free of charge.
    If your iTunes is up to date, remove the SC Info folder.

    No such model.  You have an iPod Nano (which generation?) or an iPod Touch.
